For me that means a greater chance to find a new painting I will fall in love with.
Take your Time
Yes buying off the internet is far from perfect so follow your heart and take your time. Send the image to your friends, research the artist and take advantage of the many gallery website features available at your disposal, such as “view-to-scale, background colors, zoom, etc”. Ask questions if you want by emailing the website and also you can compare shop. Remember if you like one artwork and its too expensive for your taste or pocketbook there is surely another painting that is similar and can fit your budget.
Protect Yourself

Check if the artwork will come with an authentication that you feel comfortable with and find out if they have a return policy that you find reasonable.
